Heeba
A girl's name of Arabic origin with 5 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Only 5 babies have been named Heeba in recorded U.S. history. That level of rarity means your child would almost certainly be the only one in their school, their workplace, and most rooms they walk into — a genuinely one-of-a-kind choice.
Heeba is not in the current top 1,000 girl names nationally, making it an uncommon choice — though your state or community may differ.
Heeba is a girl's baby name of Arabic origin, a variant of Hiba, from Arabic hiba meaning 'gift, present.' It is a simple, beautiful Arabic name celebrating the child as a divine gift.
EtymologyShow more
Heeba first shows up in U.S. Social Security records in 2002. A twenty-first-century entry, Heeba belongs to the newest generation of American names — often coined, blended, or borrowed from international sources.
Its Arabic classification suggests a path from arabic linguistic traditions into American usage, though the specific route — whether through immigration, literature, or cultural exchange — would require deeper historical research.
